Hey church leaders, can I tell you something about abuse that no one ever really told me? And that I don't think my leaders really knew either?
When someone discloses abuse to you, it's probably just the tip of the iceberg.
They're testing the waters. They're not telling you the worst of it. They're telling you the bare minimum to find out if you can be trusted. They're trying to enlist your help. If someone tells you they've been abused, assume the worst until you can safely assume otherwise.
